After DREAM.14 training partners Kenji Osawa and Hiroyuki Takaya appealed for the weight class to be split into two and in that case Osawa would fight in the lower weight class and Takaya in the higher weight class.

I’m guessing Cole Escovedo (if he has more fights in DREAM) would fight in the lower weight class.

The only question is where Bibiano Fernandes would fight (I’m guessing the lower weight class). It seems to be quite a good split though as the fighters seem to be nicely divided in half for the two new divisions.
